Saber Spot WW Safety Precautions

Power Supply: The ADJ Saber Spot WW contains a automatic volt-
age switch, which will auto sense the voltage when it is plugged into
the power source. With this switch there is no need to worry about
the correct power voltage, this unit can be plugged in anywhere.
DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal pro-
tocol used by most lighting and controller manufactures as a form
of communication between intelligent fixtures and controllers. A
DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller to
the fix-ture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from fixture to
fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on
all DMX fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminal).
DMX Linking: DMX is a language allowing all makes and models
of different manufactures to be linked together and operate from
a single controller, as long as all fixtures and the controller are
DMX compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when
using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path
possible. The order in which fixtures are connected in a DMX line
does not influence the DMX addressing. For example; a fixture
assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a DMX
line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle.
Therefore, the first fixture controlled by the controller could be the
last fixture in the chain. When a fixture is assigned a DMX address
of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned to address
1 to that unit, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements: The Saber Spot WW can
be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The Saber Spot WW has 3
DMX channel modes. The DMX
address is set electronically using the controls on
the rear panel of the unit. Your unit and your DMX
controller require a approved DMX-512 110 Ohm
Data cable for data input and data output (Figure
1). We recommend Accu-Cable DMX cables. If you
are making your own cables, be sure to use stan-
dard 110-120 Ohm shielded cable (This cable may
be purchased at almost all professional sound and
lighting stores). Your cables should be made with
